Hi Dane!

-> I was / am in the same boat you are.  :-)  The last time I ran a BBS was in
-> 1990/91 in Orlando.  What are you using as the telnet server?  I'm NetFoss
-> 1.0 and its Net2BBS telnet server.  Freeware and works very well.

I am actually running it out of synchronet right now as a door. It has it's
advantages, for Instance, I run my Telegard system as a door out of sync and
You can Play fossil based doors as well as Older doors without fossil support
if running through Sync. So it's Syncs fossil driver that is running out to
PCBas well. I have tried the setup from the turnkey PCB setup out there, but
havethe same problems I have in sync when dropping to doors.

-> If I spend the $25 for NetSerial (sysop price), then NetSerial provides the
-> COMport emulation and those doors and others will work (and you don't need
-> NetFoss
-> if you're using NetSerial).

I had considered this in the past as well, though I could not get my Telegard
Blue wave door running with netserial either. Not until I started running it
asa door from sync did BW door start working.

I like You have registered the PCB bw door and Cam mail. Back in the days when
offline mail was real heavy it was worth it. I'd have to give netserial
anotherlook with PCB.

-> Are you just using the internal routines for QWK packets for the time
being?
Not even close to being that far. I just set this one up in PCB for now, Just
to see if I could and to give me something to work with. But I have tried a
fake qwk download and it worked. I opend the packet with a BW reader and it
wasfine.

Catchya Soon
Mike
